Lyrics and translation Núbia Lafayette - Devolvi




Devolvi
Returned
Devolvi
Returned
O cordão e a medalha de ouro
The necklace and the gold medal
E tudo que ele me presenteou
And everything he gave me
Devolvi suas cartas amorosas
I returned his love letters
E as juras mentirosas
And the liar's oaths
Com que ele me enganou
That he fooled me with
Devolvi
Returned
A aliança e também seu retrato
The ring and his picture
Para não ver seu sorriso
To not see his smile
No silêncio
In the silence
Do meu quarto
Of my room
Nada quis guardar como lembrança
I don't want to save anything as a souvenir
Pra não aumentar meu padecer
So as not to increase my suffering
Devolvi tudo
I returned everything
não pude devolver
I couldn't return
A saudade cruciante
The painful longing
Que amargura meu viver
That embitters my life
